I bought this product because I had played it's two prequels and looked forward to this release. I bought this game second hand to reduce cost, which meant that the online key had already been used and I had to buy my own, but other than that, this product was amazing and exactly what was advertised.

A powerful ending to an amazing trilogy. Well worth all the sleep you lose!

Ignore everything negative that you may have heard about the end of this game! It's a great journey that is well worth taking.
However, don't treat this as a shooter. If you enjoy games with strong story lines and characters, along with a high level of immersive engagement then I would recommend this game to you. It was marketed as a stand alone game even though it is the final game in a trilogy, but you are missing out on so much if you jump in to number 3 as your start point. Do yourself a favour and play them 1,2,3 to get an amazing, deeply engaging experience where you will truly care about the characters you meet and the choices you have to make along on your journey through the games. There are some very powerful moments in there as the decisions are not always easy ones, and may leave you shocked, sad, happy or even broken hearted! Be prepared to shed tears if you are able to empathise with strongly emotional situations. This game is THE most powerful entertainment experience I have ever had, more so than any novel, movie or other game I have played. It stayed with me for days after finishing the game. I have replayed the series several times over as you can have a completely different experience each time. I cannot recommend this highly enough.
Oh, multiplayer is not too shabby either if you like firefight/teamwork scenario's. Fun stuff.Read full review
